are you aware that the budget is yet to be approved by the house of assembly? which money do you want these ministers to operate with?

Sometimes we need to do some proper analysis before we make our views

CBN GOVERNOR SAYS NAIRA MAY
FALL TO N1000 PER DOLLAR!!!
RELATED ITEMS: CBN, CBN GOVERNOR, MR.
GODWIN EMEFIELE
REGARDING THE CONSTANT DEPRECIATION
OF NAIRA, A REPORT WAS PUBLISHED ON
NIGERIAN CAMERA, BEARING AN
INTERESTING STATEMENT BY MR. GODWIN
EMEFIELE, THE GOVERNOR OF THE CENTRAL
BANK OF NIGERIA, [CBN] AND HIS
PREDICTION OF A CONTINUOUS FALL IN
NAIRA.
Mr Godwin, who has served as Chief Executive
officer and Group Managing Director of Zenith
Bank Plc and also Deputy Managing Director of
same company, gave a lengthy breakdown of
why he thinks Naira may fall to N1000 per
dollar in the nearest future.
Mr. Godwin Emefiele’s Report:
“IT IS EITHER I DO NOT
UNDERSTAND ECONOMICS
AND HOW EXCHANGE RATES
WORK OR A VAST MAJORITY
OF US NIGERIANS STILL DON’T
GET HOW WE HAVE WRECKED
OUR COUNTRY WITH OUR
OWN CURIOUS CHOICES. JUST
THIS MORNING, I WAS
LISTENING TO THE RADIO AND
THE LADY ON AIR WENT ON
AND ON ABOUT HOW SHE
THOUGHT CBN GOVERNOR,
GODWIN EMEFIELE WAS
INCOMPETENT AND SHOULD
BE SACKED BECAUSE THE
NAIRA WAS NOW
EXCHANGING AT 309 OR SO TO
THE USD.
“THAT VIEW PRETTY MUCH
ECHOES THE SENTIMENTS
EXPRESSED BY MANY PEOPLE I
KNOW AND IT AMAZES ME
THAT THERE ARE NIGERIANS
WHO ACTUALLY THINK THERE
IS SOME MAGIC POLICY THAT
CAN MAKE THE NAIRA
STRONG IN THE NEAR TERM.
IF MY ECONOMICS AND MY
UNDERSTANDING OF THE WAY
THE WORLD WORKS ARE
RIGHT, THEN THAT IS AS FAR
FROM THE TRUTH AS JESUS
CHRIST IS BLACK.
CBN GOVERNOR, MR GODWIN
EMEFIELE
“THE SIMPLE FACT OF THE
MATTER IS THAT APART FROM
OIL THAT ACCOUNTS FOR
OVER 90% OF OUR REVENUES,
WE REALLY DON’T HAVE MUCH
OF AN ECONOMY. WE HARDLY
PRODUCE ANYTHING, WE
IMPORT EVEN TOOTHPICKS,
SO EXACTLY WHAT POLICY IS
GOING TO BE IMPLEMENTED
THAT WILL TURN NIGERIA
INTO A TOP EXPORTING
ECONOMY IN THE NEAR
TERM? WHERE ARE OUR
APPLES, IBMS, DISNEYS, GMS,
GENERAL ELECTRICS, COCA
COLAS, EMPIRE STATE
BUILDINGS, STATUES OF
LIBERTIES, LOCKHEEDS,
CITIBANKS, JP MORGANS,
EXXONMOBILS, NBAS, SUPER
BOWLS ETC? LET ME BRING
THAT CLOSER HOME.
“THERE WAS A TIME LONG
AGO WHEN NIGERIA HAD A
TRULY STRONG ECONOMY
AND THE NAIRA WAS ONE TO
THE DOLLAR – EVEN
EXCHANGED FOR HIGHER
THAN THE USD, BUT THAT
NIGERIA IS NOT THIS
NIGERIA. SADLY THAT
NIGERIA WAS LAID BY THE
BRITISH, AND THIS NIGERIA
(IF YOU DON’T BELIEVE IN THE
NONSENSICAL IMPERIALIST
CONSPIRACIES LIKE ME) –
FUELED BY THE DAMAGING
INDIGENIZATION DECREE,
HAS BEEN THE CREATION OF
US NIGERIANS. BACK THEN WE
HAD A BOOMING ECONOMY.
WE WERE EITHER THE TOP, OR
AMONG THE TOP EXPORTERS,
OF TIMBRE, COCOA,
GROUNDNUTS, RUBBER, PALM
OIL, ETC, IN THE WORLD.
NIGERIANS NOT ONLY
HOLIDAYED AT HOME IN
THEIR VILLAGES, AT YANKARI
GAMES RESERVE, AT OBUDU
CATTLE RANCH, AT OGUTA
LAKE, AT IKOGOSI SPRINGS,
AT GURARA FALLS, AT
MAMBILLA PLATUEAU, ETC,
WE ATTRACTED
INTERNATIONAL TOURISTS
WHO BROUGHT IN LOADS OF
FOREIGN EXCHANGE. EVEN
NIGERIAN SCHOOLS WERE
FOREIGN EXCHANGE EARNERS
BECAUSE THEY ATTRACTED
FOREIGN STUDENTS.
“WE HAD DIFFERENT CAR
ASSEMBLY PLANTS – PEUGEOT,
VOLKSWAGEN, ANAMCO ETC.
NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT
OFFICIALS ONLY BOUGHT
VEHICLES ASSEMBLED IN
NIGERIA FOR OFFICIAL CARS.
WE HAD A THRIVING SPORTS
INDUSTRY. WE WERE NOT
MAN UNITED OR CHELSEA
FANS, WE WERE RANGERS OR
IICC FANS. WE HAD THE
NDUKA ODIZORS, PEOPLE
MADE MONEY FROM SPORTS.
WE ALSO HAD COMPANIES
LIKE LENNARDS AND BATA
PRODUCING SCHOOL SHOES
IN THEIR THOUSANDS, WE
HAD THE THRIVING NIGERIAN
AIRWAYS AND THE AVIATION
SCHOOL IN THE NORTH THAT
PRODUCED SOME OF THE BEST
PILOTS IN THE WORLD.
IN THOSE DAYS IF YOU WERE
BRILLIANT YOU WERE
RESPECTED MUCH MORE THAN
THE CRASS MONEY-MISS-
ROAD CONTRACTORS OF
TODAY. MOST OF THE AJE
BUTTERS I KNEW HAD
FATHERS WHO WERE
UNIVERSITY DONS. BACK
THEN IT MEANT SOMETHING
TO ‘KNOW BOOK’. OUR
TEXTILE INDUSTRY WAS ALIVE
AND WELL. JUST RECENTLY I
WATCHED A NEWS REPORT ON
THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY IN
NIGERIA ON CCTV NEWS.
THOUGH THE MAIN FOCUS
WAS ON THE COMATOSE
STATUS OF THE INDUSTRY, I
WAS STUNNED BY THE
GIGANTIC KADUNA TEXTILE
MILL BUILT IN 1957. I COULD
GO ON AND ON.
“TODAY HOWEVER, NO
THANKS TO OUR PARENTS
(AND WE MUST CALL THEM
OUT THE WAY WOLE SOYINKA
DID HIS GENERATION) AND
MANY OF US (AND WE
SHOULD BE REMEMBERED FOR
FAILING OUR CHILDREN IF WE
CONTINUE LIKE THIS), WE
HAVE DESTROYED
EVERYTHING. TODAY FOR
INSTANCE NIGERIAN
FOOTBALL (WHICH COMES
EASY TO ME OBVIOUSLY)
DOESN’T APPEAL TO US, WE
HAVE TO FLY ACROSS
THOUSANDS OF MILES TO
WATCH ‘OUR’ CLUBS PLAY.
EVERY YEAR WE COLLECTIVELY
BURN BILLIONS OF NAIRA
BEING FANS OF CLUBS THAT
GIVE US NOTHING BACK, BUT
SOME ‘ENTERTAINMENT
VALUE’ – SIMPLE PLEASURES
FOR WHICH WE ARE READY TO
DESTROY THE FUTURE OF OUR
CHILDREN.
“WELL PEOPLE, PAYBACK TIME
IS HERE. EVEN WITH OUR TA-
SHE-RE MONEY WE ALL WANT
TO WEAR DESIGNER CLOTHES
AND CARRY DESIGNER BAGS,
ARMANI, GIVENCHY, LOUIS
VUITTON ETC. WE ALL WANT
TO DRIVE JEEPS WITH
AMERICAN SPECS, OUR
CHILDREN MUST NOW
SCHOOL OVERSEAS AND
ACQUIRE THE NECESSARY
ACCENTS TO COME BACK
HOME AND BAMBOOZLE THEIR
‘BUSH AND CRASS’
CONTEMPORARIES THAT THEY
LEFT BEHIND. WHO HOLIDAYS
IN NIGERIA ANYMORE, IS
THERE DISNEYLAND HERE? NO
ONE BUYS MADE-IN-NIGERIA
SCHOOL BAGS FOR THEIR
CHILDREN, AFTER ALL NO
SUPERMAN OR INCREDIBLE
HULK OR CINDERELLA ON
THEM.
“WE ARE NO LONGER TOP
EXPORTERS OF ANYTHING
AND THE DEMISE OF OIL
MEANS WE HAVE ZILCH…
ZERO. A COUNTRY OF 170M
FASHION-CONSCIOUS PEOPLE
HAS NO TEXTILE INDUSTRY.
WE TAKE DELIGHT IN
SHOWING HOW OUR MADE-
IN-SWITZERLAND ASO EBI IS
DIFFERENT CLASS TO
EVERYONE ELSE’S. WHEN WE
HELP OUR MUSICIANS GROW
AND PAY THEM MILLIONS,
THEY REPAY US BY
IMMEDIATELY SHIPPING THE
MONIES OVERSEAS TO
PRODUCE THEIR “I-DON-DEY-
DIFFERENT-LEVEL” MUSIC
VIDEOS. IT MAKES NO
DIFFERENCE THAT DISTINCTLY
ZULU DANCERS ARE DANCING
TO A NIGERIAN HIGHLIFE
SONG.
“AS STARS CONCERNED THEY
ALSO WED AND HOLIDAY
OVERSEAS TO IMPRESS US ALL.
ALL THE MUSICIANS WHO
ACKNOWLEDGE THEIR
AJEGUNLE ROOTS NOW SPEAK
IN A COCKTAIL OF STRANGE
ACCENTS TO SYMBOLISE HOW
MUCH THEY HAVE BLOWN
THEIR MONIES OVERSEAS.
WERE WE A MORE SERIOUS
PEOPLE, THE HIGHLY POPULAR
KINGSWAY STORES OF THE
PAST WOULD PROBABLY HAVE
A THOUSAND OUTLETS PAN
NIGERIA TODAY SUPPORTING
A MASSIVE AGRICULTURE
INDUSTRY AMONG OTHERS,
BUT TODAY WE HAVE THE
LIKES OF SPAR, SHOPRITE,
DOMINATING THE RETAIL
INDUSTRY WHILE KINGSWAY
IS DEAD.
“AND WE NIGERIANS MAKE IT
A SPECIAL POINT TO SHOP
FROM THE OYINBOS WHO
HAVE ‘CLEANER SHOPS’,
‘BETTER THIS AND BETTER
THAT’. FOR OUR PERSONAL
PLEASURE WE DON’T MIND
THEM DOMINATING US IN
OUR OWN BACKYARD AND
SHIPPING PROCEEDS
OVERSEAS. I COULD GO ON
AND ON, BUT I DON TIRE.
EVEN AS YOU ARE READING
THIS, STOP FOR A MOMENT
AND LOOK AROUND YOU.
WHAT YOU SEE WILL
PROBABLY EXPLAIN WHY WE
ARE LUCKY IT IS NOT N1000 TO
THE USD YET. AND DON’T
THINK FOR A MOMENT THAT
IT CANNOT GET THERE.
“JUST CONTINUE TO WEAR
YOUR ARMANI GEAR AND
SWISS-MADE LACE, CONTINUE
TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON
MAN UNITED, ARSENAL,
CHELSEA AND BARCA AND
ENCOURAGE YOUR CHILDREN
TO DO SAME. (MY ARTICLE
TOMORROW IN MY SATURDAY
COLUMN IN THIS DAY IS ON
THE NIGERIAN CHAMPIONS
ENYIMBA FC – NIGERIA’S
MOST SUCCESSFUL CLUB –
NOT HAVING A SPONSOR, YET
NIGERIAN BRANDS PAY OVER
N600M TO MAN UNITED AND
ARSENAL FOR SPONSORSHIP
TO IMPRESS US.) EHHH, NO
PROBLEM, CONTINUE TO TELL
ME THE NPFL IS RUBBISH OR
THE CLUBS SHOULD CLEAN UP
THEIR ACT IF THEY WANT
SPONSORSHIP, MO GBO .
“DON’T CURTAIL YOUR
INTEREST IN CHOICE WINES
( WE WERE THE NUMBER ONE
CHAMPAGNE CONSUMERS IN
THE WORLD IN 2015),
CONTINUE TO LOVE YOUR
AMERICAN SPECS, CHEER THE
EDUCATION MINISTRY FOR
LETTING SCHOOLS SINK TO
PITIABLE LEVELS, DON’T FIGHT
THEM TO IMPROVE OUR
SCHOOLS, DON’T CHIDE THEM
FOR LETTING SCHOOLS DROP
NIGERIAN HISTORY AND
EMBRACE BRITISH, AMERICA
AND WHATEVER ELSE
CURRICULAR.
“CARRY ON WITH YOUR LOVE
OF FRENCH WINES AND
CHINESE SILK, DON’T BOTHER
ABOUT JAMIU ALLI WHEN
THERE IS ROGER FEDERER.
STOCK UP ON YOUR ITALIAN,
AMERICAN, BRITISH
PRODUCTS WHICH YOU
CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT,
INCLUDING THE ‘BABY SOFT’
TOILET ROLLS PRODUCED
ONLY IN THAT SMALL UNIQUE
VILLAGE IN ENGLAND – THE
DAYS ARE LONG GONE SINCE
YOU WERE A BROKE STUDENT
WHO USED WET NEWSPAPERS
TO WIPE YOUR BUTT.
“DON’T EVEN CONSIDER
HOLIDAYING IN NIGERIA, IT’S
TOO DANGEROUS – YOU HAVE
TO FULFILL YOUR DREAM OF
BEING NIGERIA’S HENRY
FORD. DON’T LISTEN TO
PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO HAVE A
WARDROBE FULL OF ONLY
CHEAP ADIRE THAT IS
ACTUALLY CHEAPER THAN
JUST ONE OF YOUR TOM FORD
BLAZERS. PLEASE KEEP
DRESSING IN FINE SILK MADE
IN SOME EXOTIC PLACE SO
YOU CAN BE ADDRESSED
ACCORDINGLY.
“FINALLY KEEP LETTING
CORRUPT LEADERS WHO HAVE
LOOTED YOUR
COMMONWEALTH AND
SHIPPED ALL THE MONIES
OVERSEAS GET AWAY BECAUSE
TO ATTACK THEM DOES NOT
FIT YOUR POLITICAL
NARRATIVE. LET US CONTINUE
WITH THE FINE LIFE, LET US
ALL CONTINUE TO WORK FOR
OYINBO. BUT DON’T FORGET
THAT THERE IS PAYBACK TIME
AND EMEFIELE IS NOT YOUR
PROBLEM. TIME FOR US ALL
TO LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND
TAKE RESPONSIBILITY

Akaujaa:


"Approved by national assembly not house of assembly", I guess you mean. Yes, I am very much aware but don't forget that they have been working the supplementary budget of the previous administration. Besides, that's not the basis of my assertion. I have taken time to study the body language of the above mentioned ministers and discovered that even with the budget at their disposal, they have little or nothing to contribute in this administration. While they wait for budgets to get to work, I believe they also need to manage the administrative aspect of their office to save this government an embarrassment.

Goke7:


You are wrong, the major duties of ministers is to implement Govt programmes so how is that possible without budget approval. The supplementary budget is for emergency spending and not for major capital expenditure. You are in a hurry judging the ministers who just resumed duties few months ago. Tell saraki and his men to stop playing politics with the budget with his cct trial.

Thanks for the correction too.
